DETAILED DESCRIPTION
What you'll feel
You'll feel the difference as soon as you hit the water. The 2/1 mm neoprene warms your core and neck without weighing you down. The integrated hood cuts out wind chill, making the trip back to the beach much more comfortable. Its close fit stays out of the way under a fullsuit or impact vest, leaving you free to move through turns and maneuvers.
Choosing the Right Size
Available in sizes XS, M, and L. We recommend choosing the size that fits snugly around your torso without feeling tight. The top should be fitted to prevent water flushing but never restrictive. If you're between sizes, go for the larger one for more comfort and freedom of movement in the shoulders.
Construction and materials
The key feature is its 2/1 mm neoprene construction. This thickness delivers targeted warmth to your core while keeping your arms completely flexible. The integrated hood is designed to stay in place as you move, protecting your head and neck from the cold.
On-water behaviour & For Whom
On the water, this neo top is unobtrusive, giving you thermal protection without restricting your paddling or pop-ups. We recommend it for anyone needing a lightweight layer of warmth for paddleboarding, Surf, or other watersports in cool conditions. It's ideal for short sessions where mobility is the top priority.
Care Tips
Rinse your neo top with fresh water after every session and let it dry in the shade to protect the neoprene. Avoid tumble dryers and store it flat or on a hanger, without folding the hood sharply. These simple steps will extend the life and comfort of your 2/1 mm neo top.
